The reason that Jiří Bělohlávek wasn't included in the list of conductors at the bottom of the article is that he is scheduled to take over in July 2006, but as of today has not yet done so. I think we need some general policy to deal with this situation (which also currently affects the London Symphony Orchestra). Just putting his name on top of the list makes it look as if he has already taken over and is currently the conductor. Also, he may in fact never become principal conductor for any one of a thousand possible reasons -- either party might change their mind, he might get sick, etc. I'm going to try putting him in italics with an explanation. If anyone else has a better way of indicating this, feel free to improve it. Grover cleveland 16:20, 3 March 2006 (UTC)
The logo for the BBC Symphony Orchestra has changed to the version seen on their website: [1]
Sonata for Two Pianos and Percussion says that the Sonata was written in 1937, premiered in that form in Basel in 1938, and arranged in 1943 as a Concerto for Two Pianos and Orchestra, which was premiered in New York with the New York Philharmonic under Fritz Reiner.
Bartók did not write any other work of this name. So, how come it was supposedly premiered by the BBC SO in the 1930s, at least 4 years before it even came into existence in the form of a double concerto?
I'm removing this as an obvious error, but if anyone can confirm what this claim is really supposed to be about, I'd be delighted to hear more. -- Jack of Oz [Talk] 07:15, 1 January 2013 (UTC)
Anyone have a list of conductors with years they were in charge? Would be the proper addition here. Canlawtictoc ( talk) 20:50, 26 January 2019 (UTC)
